PEZ and MP3s, together at last

Stay-at-home-dad-with-a-dream Pat Misterovich got permission from the PEZ people and spent a year trying to get the little plastic toy to functionally store and play tunes (a process which Make has been following intently).

The result is a 512 mb (120 song) PEZ Pal Boy that’s Mac OS X and Windows compatible, uses 1 AAA battery, can be used as a USB storage drive and comes pre-loaded with indie music!

And the really cool thing? You turn it on by flipping up the head and pushing a little button inside. (picture)

One of the limited edition first runs costs only $99. It comes with earbud headphones and a USB cable. Get it here.

Of course, it also begs the question: which PEZ character to do next? Make suggests fallen rappers.
